High Fe or Fe in combination with Cu usually indicates bearing trouble, particularly Nos. 3, 4, or 5 bearings.
Increase in Mg which may be accompanied with increase in Fe indicate possible discrepancy due to fretting of the
bearing liner in the main gearbox. High Al and Fe may indicate defective oil pump. Ti is a significant wear metal.
Increases in Ti are indicative of the spacer between Nos. 2, 2-1/2 and 3 bearing turning on the shaft. High Fe
together with high Ti indicate discrepancy in the Nos. 2, 2-1/2 and No. 3 bearing area.
NOTE
High Al by itself may be indicative of worn threaded area on oil tank breather tee fitting
and is due to movement of fitting.
